Studio
PANI JUREK is a design studio combined with a ceramics workshop, run by Magda Jurek and Michał Borecki. It operates at the intersection of design, craftsmanship, and art. The objects created by Studio Pani Jurek go beyond their stereotypical functions, with interactivity being an inherent feature. Conceived as elements of spatial compositions, they often change depending on their surroundings and users. A distinctive trait of the studio’s projects is color – a result of Magda Jurek’s background in painting. While functionality is not the starting point in the creation process, it is never neglected. Ergonomics and design discipline help tame imagination and material. A fascination with materials – especially ceramics – and a deep respect for their possibilities and limitations are evident in every object created by Studio Pani Jurek.
Objects created by Pani Jurek Studio are part of the collections of the National Museum in Krakow and the National Museum in Warsaw.

My projects are personal, they mature for a long time. They combine several threads, which at the right moment come together. I love hiding meanings in objects, even if they are only readable to me. Little obsessions, memories, lasting fascinations, merge with everyday observations. It is wonderful to see how such disparate phenomena or observations come together in the form of an object.
Magda Jurek, painting graduate, founder of Pani Jurek studio. She straddles the border between fine arts, craft and design. Applied art objects designed by her are created in an artisanal manner. Utility forms besides colors, stains, textures, shapes are means of expression that form an abstract composition. Conceived as part of a composition, they are designed in response to their surroundings and the people who use them. The possibilities are tamed by ergonomics and material. Fascination with the material, especially ceramics, and respect for its possibilities and limitations is visible in all of Pani Jurek’s products.
